I'm not satisfied with it *just* as an environment variable and I've been trying to make that point ever since we began this exchange. I don't feel that it's *sufficient* as an environment variable as long as the ports collection (or its agents) continues to be vulnerable to this issue in any way. People expect things which effect the build, as this most certainly does if you're behind a firewall, to be documented with the other build knobs. That's all I'm saying. Please, revert the change already! I had it there for good reason. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
